• Investigation of transient scenarios in underbalanced drilling 

      Ali, Mohamed Muse (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)
      When drilling underbalanced wells, the standard way consists to drill with a very low mud weight in order to obtain a well pressure lower than pore pressure. The flow of the fluids from the reservoir up to the tubing is ...
    • Making a simple steady state model more appropriate for underbalanced drilling 

      Akdeniz, Yasir (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IPT/2012;, Master thesis, 2012)
      In an underbalanced operation the well needs to be kept in underbalanced conditions at all time. That is, from the beginning to the end of the drilling process. This is necessary to keep well from formation damage and ...
